Max couldn't control the urge anymore. He just had to see Skye.

Max lingered near the door longer than necessary, adjusting the strap of his cloak, then readjusting it again. He didn't before, but now he hated that Becca noticed everything.

“I’m heading to the stream,” he said at last, keeping his tone casual. “The traps need checking. If we don’t reset them before nightfall, we might regret it tomorrow.”

It wasn’t a lie, the traps did need checking. It just wasn’t the whole truth.

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    A Kiss He Didn't Expect

    Eugene walked into his chambers without saying a word and the heavy doors closed behind him with a soft thud.For the first time since Becca had been rushed to the healer's chambers, he was completely alone and somehow, that was worse.The silence pressed against him from every direction.Eugene stood in the middle of his chambers, staring at nothing. His shoulders were tense, his hands were still clenched. His mind, however, was anything but quiet.His thoughts immediately returned to Becca. Her pale face, her closed eyes, the blood, her body convulsing beneath the sheets made him almost unable to breathe. He loosened the collar of his shirt and walked toward the balcony. When he pushed the doors open, the cool night air immediately brushed against his face.Eugene's chest tightened."What if..."He stopped and his jaw clenched."No."He shook his head. He refused to finish the thought but his mind was already doing it for him.What if Becca dies tonight?The question was unbearable

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    No Going Back

    Greta pushed open the storage-room door and she heard a muffled, desperate sound from somewhere inside the dark room.Greta froze and her heart immediately dropped into her stomach."No..."She slowly stepped inside and pulled the door shut behind her.The storage room was dim, illuminated only by the weak light that slipped through a narrow window near the ceiling.The maid was awake and her eyes immediately locked onto Greta as she twisted desperately against the ropes binding her wrists. Her face was pale and exhausted, but the anger in her eyes was stronger than ever.The gag had slipped slightly from her mouth."You sick woman" her voice was hoarse.Greta's expression tightened. For several seconds, neither woman moved then the maid began struggling harder."Untie me!" She demanded.Greta quickly shut the door more firmly."Stop moving.""Untie me!""I said stop!" She yelled at her."You think tying me up will make this disappear? You think nobody will find me?" The maid's voice

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Holding Back

    Becca's body continued to convulse. Even after Eugene and Tyler had pulled their auras back, the trembling refused to stop."Becca!" Eugene's voice cracked with panic.Her fingers curled tightly against the sheets and her breathing came in short, broken gasps."What's happening?"Mira stood beside the bed, tears streaming down her face."Please...make her stop" she begged.The head healer ignored the panic surrounding her."Everyone stay calm!"She immediately rushed toward a cabinet and began searching through several small jars."Where is it?"One of the younger healers pointed toward a shelf and she hurried over. The head healer crushed several leaves between her fingers before dropping them into a cup of steaming water."Hold her head carefully" she instructed. Another healer supported Becca while the head healer stirred the mixture."Open her mouth."Eugene stepped forward."Let me help."The healer's answer was immediate."No, please step back" she implored.Eugene hesitated th

    Greta stood frozen before the iron bars as Desmond's last words continued to echo inside her head.She swallowed hard. She knew it was the only solution to this kind if situation she had found herself in but hearing it out loud caused her chest to ache.Her palms were damp and she tried to find the right words."I can't do it" she said.Desmond's eyes narrowed."What did you say?" He demanded. Greta forced herself to meet his gaze."I said, I can't do that" she repeated as her voice trembled.For several seconds, Desmond simply stared at her then his expression darkened."You can't?"Greta shook her head."I can keep her hidden, I can make sure she doesn't speak, or I can move her somewhere no one will find her" she said.Desmond's jaw tightened."That isn't what I told you to do."Greta nodded."I know.""Then why are we still having this conversation?" He asked.Greta swallowed."Because she's innocent" she replied. A bitter laugh escaped Desmond."Innocent? She's a witness" he re

    The healer's chambers had become unbearable.Eugene's Alpha aura filled every corner of the room, thick and suffocating. It pressed against the walls, rattled the windows, and made the flames of the nearby lamps tremble.Several healers struggled to breathe normally. One of the younger healers had already backed against the wall, her hands trembling."Alpha King..." the head healer pleaded. "Please."Eugene didn't even look at her."I'm not leaving" he said."Your presence is making it difficult for us to work" she explained. "Then work harder."The healer's eyes widened."That is not what I meant."Eugene's gaze remained fixed on Tyler."Everything was fine before he came in" he said.Tyler's expression hardened then he stood his ground."The moment I entered, you started threatening everyone" he shot at him.Eugene's jaw tightened."I want you out.""And I'm not leaving" he refused."You're testing my patience" Eugene's frowned deepened. Tyler's aura slowly rose in response."I'm

  • The Rejected Omega's Redemption    Desmond's Verdict

    Greta's breathing was uneven as she pulled the unconscious maid deeper into an abandoned storage room at the rear of the mansion. It was a place she had discovered not too long ago. She was very sure no one would come in here so they wouldn't be able to find the meddling bitch that had ruined her attempt to carry out Alpha Desmond's plan.The room smelled of dust, old wood, and damp stone. Broken barrels and unused crates were piled carelessly against the walls, making it the perfect place to hide someone, at least for a little while.Greta knelt beside the maid."I'm sorry," she murmured, though there was little remorse in her voice. "You simply chose the wrong moment to be brave."The young maid remained unconscious.Greta quickly found an old length of rope lying among the supplies. She tightly bound the girl's wrists behind her back before securing her ankles.She paused and tested the knots."They'll hold."Then she tore a strip of cloth from an old sack and carefully tied it ac

    The silence in the room was heavier than usual. Eugene stood by the large arched window in his room, one hand resting against the wooden frame, the other clenched into a fist at his side. The moon hadn’t risen yet, but the sky was already darkening, shadows stretching long across the forest. A
